The lecture by the Rev. G. C. Shrk of
Whiting is spoken of as very excellent
the following opinion is by one of his
hearers: "The lecture was interesting
and highly instructive. The history of
the Hungarian struggle for liberty is a
thrilling account of the efforts of the
weak against the powerful, the few
against the many, the right against the
wrong; efforts to obtain and retain ma
tional freedom. The struggle is ended,
but the subject is not, nor can ever be a
dead one so long as the strong ones of
the earth show the same tendency to OPP
pose might to right. We judge the lect-
ure cannot be listened to by thoughtful
hearers without profit"

 reception and dinner was given in honor of the Rev. E. G. Robinson, D. D., LL.D., president of Brown university, at the Waure- gan House, Norwich, Saturday evening. The host of the occasion was Adams P. Carroll, Esq, of Norwich, class of ri, and the guests the Rev. pr. Robinson and the alumni of Brown university resident in Norwich. The following gentlemen assembled to greet the respected president of their alma mater: l.. w. Meech '45, General William G. Ely '59, H. L. Hammond, M. D., '64, Welcome A. Smith '65, Lucius Brown '66, Charles H Brown '66, Rev. D. H. Taylor '71, Adams P Carroll '71, W. w. Collins '73, Franklin H. Brown '75, l.. R. Southworth '79, Charles Farnsworth '99, William G. Ely, jr., '90 The occasion was full of satisfaction to all present.
 Dr. Robinson in his remarks said: !: The work done by Brown has been pre- eminently educational. Continuing he said Her graduates thus far have been noted not 90 much in the field of literature as in that of instruction. To President James B. Angel, a graduate of Brown, Michigan university owes her foremost rank in the list of the great institutions of the West. The dean or Iale university (feIer- ring to Professor WaylanD to whom much of her present prosperity is due, is g Brown alumnus, as is also Professor Fisher of the Yale Theological school, perhaps the most critical scholar in the institution.
 Princeton university to-day is indebted for her high standing more to the efforts of Dean Murray, son of Brown, than to any other man. Cornell university has just ad- vanced the salary to large figure of Benja- min R. Wheeler, (Brown, class of '75) whose services Yale tried to secure. In propor tion to her size the college had sent out more teachers than other institutions.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 In answer to Canon Isaac Taylor at the Wolverhampton church congress let us hear Dr. David Livingstone, the Christian hero and philanthropist. From his ''Last Jour nals" we make these quotations: ''The report of Moslem mission to his country (Mteya' s) was falsehood though the details given were circumstantial. Falsehood is SO con- mon one can believe nothing the Arabs say unless confirmed by other evidence: they are the followers of the prince of lies, Moham- med, whose cool appropriation of the knowl- edge gained at Damascus from the Jews is perfectly disgusting. All his deeds were done when unseen by any witnesses. It is worth noticing that all admit the decadence of the Moslem power, and they ask how is it so fallen2 The Persian Arabs are said to be gross idolators and awfuIly impure. False hood seems ingrained in their constitutions. No wonder that in all this region they have never tried to propagate Isla1nism," pages 356 and 364. Surely these words should have weight against those of Canon Tay- Tor, P.
